A healthy spine supports your body and lets you bend and twist your back. Injury, poor posture, overuse, or a problem from birth can put stress on the spine. This causes wear and tear on the joints where the bones (vertebrae) meet. You may have pain and stiffness, or you may have no symptoms until the spine is permanently damaged.
